Suppose I wish to allow only users who have scored at least 15 in the particular tag to answer my question, Is it possible to set a condition like this while asking a question? So that I can avoid strangers/answers from dummy users.

@JackManey In fairness, I think Raj is just not really up on how things work around here, and may have an issue with language/culture. I think he's just trying to release us from feeling obligated to continue to help with this question.

By the way Raj, welcome to Meta Stack Overflow! Downvotes just signify the community disagrees with your request, and they don't really mean much. Just spend some more time on MSO and on SO and you'll learn more about the platform. With that said, we do encourage ideas, just search first. ;) Good luck man! :)

I'm fully in favor of this feature. It's really not helping anybody if Hello World level beginners clutter the answers to advanced topics. Of course, skilled devs may join and have 1 rep temporarily, but that's like 0.1 % of cases.

Why can't you ignore those answer if reputation is less than 15? See everyone start their reputation from 1. We can't say all people who has reputation less than 15 are strangers.

Its a nice thought. One of my best suggestion for this site is to allow only right name and right photo.
Example: Raj - looks right name/hims056 looks like dummy. In case of photo, ur's dummy and hims056 used right one !!!

@Raj - Expertise has not been shown to correlate with a Stack Overflow reputation score.

No, you don't need this feature. There are many expert programmers out there who have only 1 reputation because they are busy working instead of posting questions and answers on Stack Overflow. ;) Besides, it's not like a user posting an answer to your question will prevent others from doing so.
